Thermostat OEM Audi or OEM Honda

OEM Audi Thermostat

I have an 06 Audi A3 2.0T Sportback with just over 105k miles; recently replaced the thermostat, spark plugs and coil packs. Other than being in need of some new brakes and a bit of cosmetic love, she's running strong.

Pros: running strong
Cons: needs new brakes
Vehicle: Audi A3
Mileage: 168981 km

I had the same exact car with same exact problem. I changed the thermostat once and it fixed it for about a year. The issue came back and I changed again and it fixed it again... So I'd say get an OEM one if you can.

Pros: fixed it for a year
Cons: issue came back
Vehicle: Honda Civic

After getting a P0128 code and replacing the Tstat with an OEM equivalent from a parts house and my code coming back and then actually buying the OEM straight from the dealer fixing my code, I’m hesitant on what I should really put in my car since it seems to be sensitive to parts as well. I remember buying Tstats from AutoZone and never being a problem before.

Pros: Fixed P0128 code
Vehicle: Honda Civic

Not the water pump but I just had my thermostat replaced under the extended warranty. I was slowly losing coolant with no discernable leak.

Pros: fully covered, extended warranty
Cons: slowly losing coolant

Recently had the exact same issue on a 14 a6 ended up being a DOA t stat I compared the shaft length on the new t start to the 2nd new t stay and sure enough it protruded out about a mm further just enough to not seal properly causing the over cooling after the swap no more issues.

Pros: no more issues
Cons: over cooling
Vehicle: Audi A6

I have a 2015 sedan and I’ve got 192,000 km and owned it since brand new and I’ve had that happen and changed the thermostat twice, just make sure you get OEM Honda thermostat and coolant as it takes a certain type. Make sure you

Burp the cooling system of all air and make sure you add enough coolant to the radiator and overflow, it’s fairly common for the thermostats to fail

Pros: OEM recommended
Cons: original failed twice, common failure
Mileage: 192000 km
